Theron Humphrey — Creating Out of a Place of Belonging

Do you believe that the catalyst for most things we create and move toward in our lives — is perhaps a broken heart? Do you think that tragedy is the underlying spark of our most important work?

For photographer and world-traveler Theron Humphrey, this statement has been one of the truest statements for the trajectory of his life. And it’s been a wild one. Theron is well-known on social media for his adventures with his coonhound Maddie. They’ve travelled the world together and started documenting their travels on Instagram when most of us didn’t know what that was. He’s a photographer who has also published two delightful books — “Maddie on Things” and “Maddie Lounging on Things” — capturing the hearts and imaginations of dog and adventure lovers all around the world.

In this conversation, Branden and Theron unpack the necessary component of doing one’s internal work. They dive deep into how the inward process and journey can bring us to a place where we realize our worth — with or without our accomplishments.

I was using photography and travel to redeem myself. However, I’m enough without those things.
